Crusader III Mk 2 AA

After a couple of years, I have re-installed WitW and WitE2.

I was the guy that researched all of the Allied ToEs and OoBs for WitW.

The British Armoured Divisions and Brigades were initially equipped with troops of Crusader 40mm AA tanks. It soon became clear that this equipment was totally ...

RE: Top 5 Napoleonic Computer Wargames

I'm a big AGEOD fan, but "Wars of Napoleon" was a hot mess, and was never fixed. That game should have had a couple of more years of development. I'm hoping that they might remake that one with their new engine.

RE: Domestic Oil Production

ORIGINAL: Cohen_slith

Pointed that out already.
Oil imo is way too scarce at the moment - or units cost too much. (Like a tactical air doing 2 strikes costs 4, and the medium bomber 6). That's a lot.

Yup

Domestic Oil Production

<t> Hungary should have decent domestic oil production in the Nagykanizsa Province (near lake Balaton) - obviously not as much as Rumania, but this is one of the reasons for the German Lake Balaton offensive - they were trying to retain the Hungarian oil production after the fall of Rumania and the ...

RE: Are Oldtimers Getting Shut Out?

I'm definitely an "old timer," but use CAD products for a living. I've found that Windows-7 Pro, which is loaded on my personal computer, is an excellent alternative to the newer Windows versions, and I think, is still available and supported.

For the 06/41 Rumanian Infantry Division, each infantry regiment had a "Companie Armament Greu" containing a "Pluton Anticar" of 6 x 3.7cm ATG, and a "Pluton Obuziera de Infanterie" of 6 x 4.7cm IGs. At the divisional level, there was ...

All of the Rumanian ToEs are taken from the Rumanian Official Histories, and captured German NARA documents.

Without the ability to schedule reinforcements and withdraws at specific times, it will be extremely difficult to design a longer scenario.

RE: Reinforcements, Diband and/or Withdraw

We may be talking past each other.

If I create a scenario, say just the Eastern Front - historical reinforcements, and withdraws, outside the control of the player, will happen.

Is this possible with the current game engine?

Reinforcements, Disband and/or Withdraw

For scenario designers, is there the ability to schedule reinforcements, and/or the disbanding or withdraw of units?
